About
This website brings together all the latest information, policies, resources and guidance on using Generative AI (Gen AI) at the University of Leeds. It is created for staff and students, to inform and support assessment, teaching, research and administrative activities.
The ethics of Gen AI and how we use it is rapidly changing. Our advice and guidance will need to adapt to new technological developments and innovation. We will publish new information on using Gen AI in research and teaching as our approach evolves with changes in AI.
Please also refer to the Staff Intranet pages (accessible to University of Leeds staff only) for:
- staff AI Hub for training, events and community updates
- staff guidance from the Secretariat
- advice on Generative AI and assessment.

University AI governance
The University of Leeds established two AI working groups in 2023, one for research and the other for student education, to consider the implications of AI and develop the guidance on this website. The guidance that has been published so far is consistent with and is informed by the Russell Group principles on the use of generative AI tools in education.
Following this initial work, the University established an AI Steering Group, which reports to the University Executive Group. The AI Steering Group receives advisory input from the Stakeholders and Experts Forum, and oversees work packages for:
- AI training and development
- AI apprenticeship
- AI systems and tools
- AI policies.
